Occupy Oakland Pictures

As Occupy Wall Street-inspired protests continue to sweep the nation (and the world), things are quickly heating up in Oakland, California. Recently, videos of blatant police brutality in response to the Occupy Oakland protests have hit the internet, causing an uproar and an increased focus on the Occupy Oakland movement. I don’t claim to be incredibly familiar with Oakland, but it seems like if there’s one group of angry people that you don’t want to piss off even more, it’s Oaklanders. Needless to say, the Occupy Oakland movement is growing larger by the hour, and the tensions are mounting as violence, vandalism, and aggression is escalating from both sides of the barricades. Good luck, Oaklanders. We’re all with you on this one!
